Make sure you have an interface pointer to the sheet you think you're using.
Try and do something else such as selecting "A1" and write something to it.
The application object contains a collection of workbooks that contains a collection of worksheets and so on. You need to get the correct sheet.
Is msp_excel really an interface opinter to a worksheet? The name that implies a opinter to the application object makes me wonder...;)
It's been a while since I automated Excel, but I remember a lot of calls to functions such as GetActiveWorkbook(), GetActiveSheet().
A good thing is to explicitly make the application visible to the user; you might have a second instance of Excel running.

Hi Roger,
Thanks very much for the response. In answer to your questions... msp_excel is a pointer to the "Application Object" defined as _ApplicationPtr and yes, though strange and at least in the wrapper files (.tlh and .tli) generated by the #import, the Selection is associated with the Application Object, not the sheet.
Another strange thing to me is that a Selection does not seem to be an object at all when using #import (no ISelectionPtr or equivalent) whereas in in the documentation (99.99% for VB, as I'm sure you know  ) it appears to be an object with VB syntax like:
appObject.Selection.Font.Style = "bold"
I would expect to be able to use something like the following to get a range that corresponded to the selection:
msp_excel->GetSelection()->GetRange();
Since it seems that you need a range for nearly everything that you do in Excel, getting a range for the current selection seems like such a common and trivial thing to do, I can't help but feel I am really missing something fundamental here... 
Thanks,
Doug

I suggest you read some about how to automate Excel.
Have a look in the references section in this article[^] and see if you can find anything useful for you.
I don't think the article itself is of any use for you, but the links may very well be.
Hope this helps

Can somebody help me ...
In my FTP application i need to get the size of the file or bytes transferred in uploading or downloading .
What is the suitable API for achieving this???
Thanks in advance

|
|

the total size of file or bytes transfered(i.e. file size = 32kb), or the constantly updated size(i.e. 0% - 100%)?
I win because I have the most fun in life...

Thanks sir for ur reply....Actualy i need to know both that is
How can i get the total size of file also the bytes transferred ? because i need to calculate the time to set the range of progress indicator.
Thanks

Hi all,
thanks all (cedric,toxxct,and brainley) for ur help. This is in response to my post some 5hrs ago.
I do in C. I have corrected the code and i get no warnings now. but i would like to know if the following way of coding and passing the address of the first pointer to funcB is threadsafe in multithreaded environment.
is the follwing way of coding correct?Any help?
funcA{
char * Names[] = {};
int next = 0;
char * list = "Abc";
Names[ next ] = malloc( sizeof( char )*( strlen( list ) + 1 ) );
memcpy( Names[ next ],list,sizeof( char )*( strlen( list ) + 1 ) );
list = "cdefg";
Names[ next+1 ] = malloc( sizeof( char )*( strlen( list ) + 1 ) );
memcpy( Names[ next+1 ],list,sizeof( char )*( strlen( list ) + 1 ) );
printf("vsp list got is %s\n", Names[0] );
printf("vsp list got is %s\n", Names[1] );
funcB(....,...,(const char**)&Names);
}
funcB(...,...,const char ** names)
{
....
//the actual values names[0] and names[1] are to be accessed and used.
...
//free names[0] and names[1]
free( (char*)names[0]);
free( (char*)names[1]);
}

Not inherently, nothing is. You must provide the safety using synchronization.

how to provide safety using synchronisation?
Can you please explain a bit more? as this is my first attempt /project on multithreaded environments.

Multi-threading and Synchronization is two large a subject to introduce in a forum. Do some reading on the subject. I can recommend Jeffery Richter's books.

An interface to an application is being written based on supplied examples that compile and execute. When the following code is used, a complier error results. The only difference is that in lieu of returning from a function, an error message is diplayed in a window followed by a goto to CoUninitialize().
HRESULT Result=NOERROR;<br />
Result = ::CoInitialize (NULL);<br />
if ( FAILED (Result) ) {<br />
DisplayStatus("Error: Failed to CoInitialize COM inteface.");<br />
goto wrap_up;<br />
}<br />
<br />
CLSID AppClsid;<br />
Result = ::CLSIDFromProgID (L"Inventor.Application", &AppClsid);<br />
if ( FAILED (Result) ) {<br />
DisplayStatus("Error: Failed to obtain CLSID. Check registration.");<br />
goto wrap_up;<br />
}<br />
<br />
IUnknown *pAppUnk = NULL;
wrap_up:
::CoUninitialize();
error C2362: initialization of 'pAppUnk' is skipped by 'goto wrap_up'
C:\Documents and Settings\Jon\My Documents\MSCSource\IV_Revision\Tab2.cpp(146) : see declaration of 'pAppUnk'
Any clues on why this error is being generated? Thanks in advance.

You could move this line above the "goto"s
IUnknown *pAppUnk = NULL;

I would like to add embedded codes to learn the status of memory consumption by my program. What function or APIs are avaiable for this.
I am working on a MFC project (Windows 2000 Pro. Visual C++ 6.0 SP6).
Someone suggested me to use GetProcessMemoryInfo().
I put
#include "psapi.h" in the *.cpp file. However, I got the following error
D:\练习\Test1\Test1View.cpp(9) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'psapi.h': No such file or directory
|
|
|
|

#include windows.h
#include stdio.h
#include "psapi.h"
void PrintMemoryInfo( DWORD processID )
{
HANDLE hProcess;
PROCESS_MEMORY_COUNTERS pmc;
printf( "\nProcess ID: %u\n", processID );
hProcess = OpenProcess( PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION |
PROCESS_VM_READ,
FALSE, processID );
if (NULL == hProcess)
return;
if ( GetProcessMemoryInfo( hProcess, &pmc, sizeof(pmc)) )
{
printf( "\tPageFaultCount: 0x%08X\n", pmc.PageFaultCount );
printf( "\tPeakWorkingSetSize: 0x%08X\n",
pmc.PeakWorkingSetSize );
printf( "\tWorkingSetSize: 0x%08X\n", pmc.WorkingSetSize );
printf( "\tQuotaPeakPagedPoolUsage: 0x%08X\n",
pmc.QuotaPeakPagedPoolUsage );
printf( "\tQuotaPagedPoolUsage: 0x%08X\n",
pmc.QuotaPagedPoolUsage );
printf( "\tQuotaPeakNonPagedPoolUsage: 0x%08X\n",
pmc.QuotaPeakNonPagedPoolUsage );
printf( "\tQuotaNonPagedPoolUsage: 0x%08X\n",
pmc.QuotaNonPagedPoolUsage );
printf( "\tPagefileUsage: 0x%08X\n", pmc.PagefileUsage );
printf( "\tPeakPagefileUsage: 0x%08X\n",
pmc.PeakPagefileUsage );
}
CloseHandle( hProcess );
}
void main( )
{
DWORD aProcesses[1024], cbNeeded, cProcesses;
unsigned int i;
if ( !EnumProcesses( aProcesses, sizeof(aProcesses), &cbNeeded ) )
return;
cProcesses = cbNeeded / sizeof(DWORD);
for ( i = 0; i < cProcesses; i++ )
PrintMemoryInfo( aProcesses[i] );
}
Hope it helps....

I'm curious how a code snippet is supposed to help.  The problem is that the preprocessor is unable to find the psapi.h file.

I don't know David ... I just thought the guy tried to complie and saw that the header file was missing ... Why not give a sample so long?? But I could have said something like ... "google the header file" or something like that, but I decided to give a code snippet ...

Unrelated, but your compiles will be somewhat faster if you put it in stdafx.h instead.

Have you verified that the file exists on your machine, in the Platform SDK\Include folder?

Hi all,
How can one test for a bad pointer (0xcccccccc)
I have this pointer array, but not all of the element contain data.
<br />
char *SendFiles[10];<br />
I have tried the following, without success...
<br />
if (SendFiles[y] == NULL)<br />
{<br />
...<br />
Thanx in advance

Always always always (and many more  ) initialize your variables and pointers in your constructor (or at the start of your program). In your case, loop through the array and set all the pointers to NULL:
for (int i=0;i<10;i++)<br />
{<br />
SendFiles[i] = NULL;<br />
}

Many, Many Thanx Cédric, never knew that .. kinda

Cedric,
After doing what you said (and it works of course).
The very last element has these characters "ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ".
I assume it is garbage or something ... how can I test for this...
Just to let you know I'm retrieveing data from a file, and putting it into the char array.
If I press enter on the very last entry in the text file, the last element in the array is: ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ
And if I don't press enter I get someting like this:
dataline1ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ
Thanx in advance ... again

Check your code that you add a '\0' at the last character of each string if it's not there.
